Based on this small exchange it seems like you erect straw men to knock down to inflate your intellectual self worth which is incredibly fragile based on how much you freaked out over a tiny correction that I didn't use at all in my argument.

If you are actually interested in engaging with the topic try harder to read what I have said

    The 00s thing was the only demonstrably wrong part of my comment, and it was long-since corrected when you commented. So I asked why – when you argued that "being wrong" was a key component of the heavy downvotes – you took an aside for that yet conspicuously didn't mention how the comment with a 10:1 ratio spends half its length confidently spouting complete, easily disprovable bullshit about user-facing folder structures.

    Seems more like a mix of anchoring bias, the bandwagon effect, and a disregard for critical thinking than it does factual accuracy, unless the tone policing component swamps everything else.

    Yes, you were wrong that the original poster was suggesting that mac is the same as chrome is in its structure. They were instead saying macos contributed to poor tech skills just as chrome OS is now. and iPads also contribute to this as Chromebooks do now. They can both contribute to the same cause even if they do it in different ways. Nowhere did they ever come close to mention macos is just as garbage as chrome OS. You added that bit in yourself to strawman. Therefore being "demonstrably wrong"

    And that was the entire substance of my discussion, how you were mistaken about the central point.

    You are also wrong about the folder structure piece. While yes chromeos technically contains a folder structure and also allows for the user to interact with it. The whole damn operating system is designed around you not needing to do that, in nearly the exact same way phones are. There's a reason that college professors in computer science departments are so confused why their students don't know how to use folder structures, and I'd wager quite a lot that chromeos has a large part to play.

    So there you go two demonstrable wrongs that have nothing to do with you missing a date
